Anal exsufflation time was compared between the two groups. Sults Anal exsufflation time of the experimental group undergoing different operations was earlier than that of the control group(P < 0.01 ). Conclusions Abdomen compression can bring forward anal exsufflation time,fa-cilitate the recovery of gastrointestinal function and normal diet, thus improve the rehabilitation of patients

Objective To clone express and purify Schistosoma japonicum fructose?1 6?bisphosphate aldolase SjFBPA in E. coli and observe its expression in different developmental stages of S. japonicum. Methods FBPA gene was amplified from S. japonicum adult worm cDNA by using PCR. The amplified product was recombined into pET28a plasmid and inducibly expressed with IPTG in E. coli BL21. SDS?PAGE and Western blotting were employed to analyze and identify the recombinant protein SjFBPA rSjFBPA . Then rSjFBPA was purified by chromatographic purification and its purity was analyzed by SDS?PAGE. The protein concentration of rSjFBPA purified was measured by the BCA method. Furthermore SjFBPA mRNA was ana?lyzed in different developmental stages of S. japonicum by RT?PCR. Results SjFBPA was successfully amplified by using PCR and identified by restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing. The Western blotting analysis confirmed that the recombinant pro?tein could specifically reactive to the anti?His?tag monoclonal antibody. The concentration of the purified recombinant protein was about 4 mg/ml. The result of RT?PCR showed that SjFBPA mRNA was expressed in cercaria schistosomulum adult worm and egg of S. japonicum. Conclusion SjFBPA is successfully recombined and expressed in a prokaryotic system and SjFBPA mRNA is expressed in cercaria schistosomulum adult worm and egg of S. japonicum.

Objective To evaluate the value of IgA and IgG antibodies against α-fodrin in both serum antibodies in SS is also assessed.Methods Samples from 39 patients with SS(25 primary and 14 secondary),8 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE),and 15 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA)as well as 10 healthy blood donors were collected.Anti-α-fodrin antibodies were measured using ELISA.Results The titer of serum anti-α-fodrin was higher in SS than in other connective tissue diseases group and healthy group(P<0.01).IgA type anti-α-fodrin antibodies was detected in 60%.44% of serum and saliva in patients with pSS respectively.IgG antibodies were detected in 43% of sera,and 29% of saliva of patients with pSS.The sensitivity and specificity of serum anti-α-fodrin IgA in SS was 54%and 85%.The level of anti-α-fodrin was positively associated with xerostomia and parotid swelling (P<0.05),and was negatively associated with xeroma,renal tubule acidosis,lung interstitial disease and hepatic damages(P>0.05).Conclusion Saliva and serLlm anti-α-fodrin level may be diagnostic for SS.It may be a useful screening marker.

OBJECTIVE[corrected] To assess the specificity and applicability of direct PCR sequencing in the detection of point mutations in hepatitis B virus (HBV) associated with drug resistance.

METHODSSerum samples were obtained from 120 patients with hepatitis B treated with nucleoside analogus for at least 2 years to detect the point mutations in HBV genome in association with drug resistance using nested PCR and direct DNA sequencing.

RESULTSForty out of the 120 patients were found to have one or two point mutations associated with drug resistance, including 17 with L180M and M204V/I mutations (42.5%), 10 with M204V/I mutation (25%), 8 with N236T mutation (20%), 3 with L180M mutation (7.5%), and 1 with both A181V/T and N236T mutations (2.5%), and 1 with A181V/T mutation(2.5%).

CONCLUSIONDNA sequencing is a good method to detect all known point mutations associated with HBV drug resistance.

Objective To study the effects of Puerarin(Pue)on survival rate,expression of GAP-43 and NGF in spinal motoneurons following brachial roots avulsion. Methods From March, 2014 to December, 2015, 192 adult Sprague Dawley rats were divided into four groups: Avulsion, Pue 50 treatment, Pue 100 and Pue 200 groups. The right C5-C7nerve roots were avulsed through the methods of cervical dorsal approach. Puerarin or normal saline was given immediatedly once daily to the rats respectively by the intraperitoneal injection. The rats were killed at 1, 2, 4 and 6 weeks after injury. The paraffin sections of C7 segment were stained with neutral red. Expression of GAP-43 and NGF were detected by Western blot. Results Compared to the avuled group, the motoneuron survival rates of Pue 100 and Pue 200 dose treatment groups increased on the second week and the sixth week(P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), and the Pue 200 dose treatment group increased on the fourth week(P < 0.01).In the anterior horn of all three groups, expression of GAP-43 increased from the 1st week to the 6 week after the operation, and reached the peak at the 4th week, and decreased at the 6th week. Compared to the avuled group, expression of GAP-43 protein increased in the Pue 100 and Pue 200 dose treatment groups at the 1st week and 2nd week,the expression of NGF protein increased in the three Pue treatment groups at four time points(P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Conclusion Puerarin can improve the survival rates of spinal motoneurons after the brachial plexus root avulsion, and the expression of GAP-43 and NGF increased, suggesting that Puerarin may play an role in the repair of brachial plexus avulsions by promoting the ex-pression of nerve growth factors.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of Anmeidan on the sleep quality and serum levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor （BDNF）， glial fibrillary acidic protein （GFAP）， and irisin in the patients with chronic insomnia. MethodA multicenter， randomized， double-blind， placebo-controlled clinical study was carried out， including 480 patients with chronic insomnia （deficiency syndrome） in Wuhan （Hubei）， Guangzhou （Guangdong）， and Lanzhou （Gansu）. They were randomized into an observation group and a control group at a ratio of 1∶1. The observation group was orally administered with Anmeidan granules at a dose of 11 g， 3 times per day， and the control group with Anmeidan simulant at a dose of 11 g， 3 times per day， Both groups of patients received sleep education after enrollment. After 4 weeks of medication， the Athens insomnia scale （AIS） scores， Spiegel scale scores， and serum levels of BDNF， GFAP， and irisin were compared between the two groups as well as between before and after treatment. ResultA total of 480 adult patients with chronic insomnia were enrolled in this study， with 64 patients falled off. Finally， the 415 patients were included in the analysis， including 213 patients in the observation group and 202 patients in the control group. There was no difference in age or sex between the two groups of patients. Compared with before treatment， the treatment in both groups decreased the AIS and Spiegel scores （P<0.01）. After treatment， the observation group had lower AIS and Spiegel scores than the control group （P<0.01）. The treatment in the observation group slightly lowered the level of BDNF， elevated the level of irisin （P<0.05）， and lowered the level of GFAP （P<0.05） in the serum. After treatment， the observation group showed higher level of irisin （P<0.05） and lower levels of BDNF and GFAP in the serum than the control group. ConclusionAnmeidan may improve the sleep quality of patients with chronic insomnia by elevating the irisin level and lowering the GFAP level in the serum.
